Saw these droppings on a mound of dead grass next to a small pool of freshwater. I found the same type of droppings 2 meters away next to a separate pool. This was in a nature reserve in Cheshire set within some farmland, less than a mile from the nearest river (Weaver). The droppings were around an inch and a half long.
